For a richer flavor, consider using a combination of Gruyere and white Cheddar cheese. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese will provide a superior flavor and texture compared to pre-grated. Don't overcook the noodles; they should be slightly underdone as they will continue to cook in the casserole. If you don't have panko bread crumbs, regular bread crumbs can be used, but the texture will be slightly different.
